Waitin’ For The Drugs To Take Hold

Some folks run around in circles
Some they just sit still and wait
Some folks give their hearts to Jesus
Others give in to lust and hate

Some people lose their temper

And some just can’t wait to get old
But me, | just sit here so patiently
Waitin’ for the drugs to take hold

Some folks think they know where they're going
But they're all lyin to themselves

Mostly they don't really give a damn

About anything or anybody else

Some people think that it's macho

To act real tough and bold

But | take it all with a grain of salt

While I'm waitin’ for the drugs to take hold

Sometimes it’s uppers

Sometimes it’s downers

It really don’t matter at all
Sometimes | can’t get

Enough of that stuff

That sends me straight up the wall

Sometimes I'm lost in the darkness
Sometimes I'm worth my weight in gold
But mostly | sit here

Like some kind of crazy fool

Waitin’ for the drugs to take hold

Some folks are born politicians

They know bullshit baffles the brain

Some people wait for the thousand foot drop
Before they jump off the train

It ain’t like I'm askin’ for trouble

Or that | can’t be bought and sold

| took myself out of the game when | started
Waitin’ for the drugs to take hold
